1. Do you like going on ride-outs with other bikers?
Only in a small group with riders I know/trust. No more than 8

2. How do you find out about ride-outs at the moment?
Friends phone me, and say do you fancy a ride to ....

3. Do you want to know what ride-outs are going on near to you?
Not really

4. Would you be interested in using your phone or the web to find ride-outs that you can join?
No

5. Would you be interested in meeting new bikers to go on ride-outs with?
Definitely not. I meet them first. Then decide if I want to ride with them.

6. How do you organise ride-outs at the moment?
Phone or face to face, An old fashion concept called talking to people.

7. Would you find it useful to use your phone or the web to organise ride-outs?
Phone is preferable. That way all questions/answered in a single conversation. Web is only useful to announce intent.

8. What would you find useful when organising or looking for a ride-out?
A route
A date
The names of others attending.
But no organisation. A rideout is a bunch of like minded individuals who know where they are going. Ride for themselves but with consideration for others. None of this leader/markers/TEC rubbish.

9. Age, M/F (optional if you'd please)
57, male and very occasionally down right grumpy.
